Is there a way to change the expense code going forward for a deferral already posted via a/p?

We’ve input an item in our A/P for a service period of 9/1/2015-9/1/2018.  When we input the deferral we debited a certain expense and credited the prepaid account for the service time.  is there a way to change the expense code for the service periods starting 5/1/17-9/1/18 only? 

I know I can change the deferral code for items already posted via a/p by voiding the deferral, but I don’t want it to go back to 2015 and 2016, I only want it to go forward.

I don’t believe there is a way to accomplish this in the deferral routine itself other than void/reenter.  A simple way to reclassify the expense would be to create a recurring batch for the journal entry.

thanks, I went ahead and set up another deferral j/e to reverse out of the wrong account and into the new account going forward.

You can set up another deferral from today forward that credits the wrong expense account and debits the new one.

thanks all, I just went ahead and set up another deferral to remove from the incorrect code and post to the correct code for the remainder of the service period.

I believe that the entry is from a reoccurring batch which is posted each month. I also assume that you have not posted all the future ones.

So I believe you can either go in and edit the accounts the batch goes to and resave it.
I guess you also have the option of going in and deleting this batch entry before it is posted the next month and creating a new one going forward.

no, it wasn’t a recurring j/e.  it was from the deferral module which posts the entire period at once.  I went ahead and created another deferral j/e and posted to the correct account.
